Ye Ruoxue, who was already two years old and had started to grow teeth and talk, jumped happily in the arms of her father Ye Youze, imitating her aunt's words and saying:
"It's Xiaohong~"
The babyish words made everyone laugh.
When the rear end of the donkey cart was out of sight, Ye Zhang turned around with her cane and said:
"Go home."
·
Chu Qi sat in the front room of the donkey cart, holding the rope that controlled the donkey's forward movement, and eating an egg pancake slowly.
Zhao Shi standing next to him was looking at them with envy. He was a person who valued food very much. If there was anything delicious, he would always be happy to try it.
He had eaten ordinary egg pancakes like this before, but for some reason, the ones his idol ate tasted better!
Zhao Shi, looking envious, silently took out two boiled eggs from the bamboo basket and started eating them.
"Mr. Chu, can we change the food?" Zhao Shi ate one, but was still craving for the one in Chu Qi's hand, so he asked with a red face.
"This is the only one." Chu Qi said a little embarrassedly.
Pancakes taste better when they are freshly made. In order to avoid the ingredients from going bad, Chu Qi did not take too many, only one.
"Ah, you can eat the leftovers too..."
Zhao Shi almost bit his tongue after saying this.
Damn it, so embarrassing!
What if his idol thinks he is reckless?
No, they are both men, so it shouldn’t be a big problem, right?
Zhao Shi felt mixed emotions.
Chu Qi: “…”
Well, it's not a big problem actually.
The pancake was very big and she only managed to eat half of it.
Seeing that Zhao Shi really wanted to eat it, he broke off the other half that had not been eaten and gave it to him:
"It's clean here, eat whatever you want."
Zhao Shi was stunned for a moment, then took it with slightly shaking hands. He, he and his idol shared a piece of cake!
Chu Qi looked at Zhao Shi, who was blushing for no apparent reason, with confusion, and asked with concern:
"You don't seem well? Is it too cold and making you dizzy?"
If you catch a cold, it will be difficult to deal with.
There is no doctor on the road!
The other two students were in front.
The road section could not be widened, and with two donkey carts traveling together, there was only enough space for a few people.
So two cars in parallel is a good choice.
The coachman smiled and replied on behalf of the shy young master:
"The young master is excited to exchange food with you."
The steps were handed over. Zhao Shi couldn't admit that he was shy anyway, so he nodded like a chicken pecking at rice:
"Yes, Mr. Chu, please have some eggs."
He handed over an egg with his tender white hands.
Chu Qi took it without much hesitation, but she was not hungry at the moment, so she put the egg aside.
Just as Zhao Shi was eating the egg pancake with satisfaction.
A shaggy red fox finally caught up with the donkey cart.
It seized the opportunity and jumped onto the roof of the donkey cart. It carefully grabbed the cloth on the roof with its sharp claws and then quickly jumped to the front.
Chu Qi suddenly felt a heaviness in her arms.
Looking down, she saw a fox opening its mouth and whimpering, nudging Chu Qi's belly to act coquettishly.
Chu Qi was delighted and said with a smile:
"Little fox, how did you catch up with me?"
Zhao Shi kept paying attention to Chu Qi from time to time, but in just a blink of an eye, he saw a furry little thing in Chu Qi's arms?
"Mr. Chu, is this your pet?"
As he spoke, he took a bite of the egg pancake and his cheeks bulged slightly.
The fox naturally couldn't talk, it just pestered Chu Qi and acted coquettishly.
Chu Qixin felt soft-hearted. She stroked the fox's furry fur while cracking the eggshell. She peeled off the white and tender egg intact and put it to the fox's mouth.
She said softly, as if coaxing a child:
"Little fox, come and eat your eggs."
The fox opened his mouth, took a bite of it, chewed it for a while, and then swallowed it.
After the fox finished eating, Chu Qi fed it two sips of water and carefully wiped the egg yolk fragments that accidentally got on its fur with a handkerchief.
So when they arrived at a post station, Chu Qi got off the car with a fox in her arms.
The other two students were quite surprised and asked curiously whether this was Chu Qi's pet.
Chu Qi thought about it, although this fox was not kept at home, it had come to the door on its own initiative now, and it seemed like it would not run away, so that was it.
"Its name is Xiaohong." Chu Qi introduced it to everyone.
Someone tried to touch it, but the fox dodged him.
The journey to take the exam was long, unlike that to stay in the county, and the emperor was afraid that something might happen to the candidates on the way.
Official stations are set up at regular intervals, where food is sold and accommodation is provided, so that candidates can replenish their food.
Of course, you can also replenish your supplies when passing through the town.
At night, Chu Qi stayed in the inn set up by the post station. After taking a bath, she fell asleep in her white underwear.
The fox hummed and wanted to get into the bed, but Chu Qi carried him to the small nest beside the bed:
"This is your nest, go to sleep."
The fox swung its tail unhappily and dived into the soft and thick nest, leaving its big furry tail swaying left and right at Chu Qi.
In the middle of the night, Chu Qi felt a very hot sensation on her head. Even in early winter, the heat was unbearable and it kept burning her skull.
Occasionally, she had difficulty breathing through her nose.
Chu Qi was suffocated and woke up. When she opened her eyes, she found that there was darkness in front of her. Even the light that seemed to be shining through the window was gone.
Am I blind? ?
In a daze, this idea popped into Chu Qi's mind.
Then the darkness in front of me moved away a little,
Reacting, she reached up and touched it.
Hands full of hair.
Chu Qi: “…”
She grabbed the fox, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and said helplessly:
